Editorial Team

Every page on nursinghomeneglectcalc.com is written and reviewed by editors with direct experience in elder abuse litigation, nursing home regulatory compliance, and long-term care advocacy. No page is published without editorial review, and no sponsored or paid content appears on this site.

Jett Palmore (JP) — Editor-in-Chief, Elder Abuse & Nursing Home Neglect Litigation Practice

Jett Palmore leads the editorial team and is responsible for the calculator methodology, harm type baselines, elder abuse statute analysis, and all primary content on this site. Jett's background is in elder abuse and nursing home neglect litigation support, including experience with California's EADACPA, Florida's elder abuse statutes, and the CMS nursing home regulatory framework under the Nursing Home Reform Act of 1987. Jett reviews all methodology content and is the final editorial authority on the accuracy of the calculator's damage estimates and legal framework.

Any page marked "Reviewed by Jett Palmore (JP)" has passed full editorial review. The baselines documented on the methodology page reflect Jett's analysis of published nursing home neglect verdicts, elder abuse statute provisions, and CMS regulatory data across the primary states for nursing home litigation.

Mace Ulbricht (MU) — Contributing Writer, Long-Term Care & Regulatory Reference

Mace Ulbricht contributes to guide and FAQ content, specializing in long-term care regulatory compliance, CMS inspection and deficiency citation processes, Adult Protective Services reporting procedures, and the long-term care ombudsman system. Mace's background includes long-term care regulatory analysis and nursing home compliance research, providing the regulatory context that underlies the legal liability framework for nursing home neglect claims.

Mace's contributions focus on: how CMS surveys and Form CMS-2567 deficiency citations create evidence of facility knowledge and systemic failure; how the ombudsman and APS systems interact with civil litigation; what the Nursing Home Reform Act's residents' rights provisions require; and the specific documentation — care plans, MARs, nursing notes, incident reports — that families should request immediately after suspected neglect.

Editorial Standards

• Primary source grounding: Factual claims about residents' rights, elder abuse statute provisions, and CMS regulatory requirements are sourced to primary authorities — 42 USC 1396r, 42 CFR Part 483, state elder abuse statutes, and published CMS guidance — not to secondary summaries.
• Documented methodology: Calculator baselines and multipliers are documented in full on the methodology page.
• No sponsored content: This site is monetized through Google AdSense display advertising only. No sponsored articles, paid placements, or attorney referral arrangements.
• Currency: Pages are reviewed and updated when CMS regulations, elder abuse statutes, or relevant state law changes.
• Scope clarity: This site provides informational content only — not legal advice or case-specific predictions.

Corrections Policy

If you identify a factual error — an incorrect statute citation, an outdated CMS regulatory requirement, a damages baseline that does not match documented verdict patterns — email hey@theclicklab.agency. Include the specific claim and the source you believe is more accurate. Corrections are reviewed within five business days.
